Dwight Howard Might Start Shooting With Eyes Closed

Dwight Howard’s struggles at the free throw line are well known. Turns out the problem may be his eyes — and the fact he’s using them.

Howard challenged Houston Rockets teammate and 84.2 percent free throw shooter James Harden to a free throw contest where both had to shoot 10 with their eyes closed. Howard came out on top by sinking eight shots, according to a report by the Houston Chronicle.

“I might have to start [shooting with] my eyes closed in games,” Howard said, according to the Chronicle. “I have a good percentage. I am 8 for 10 with my eyes closed.”
